Root Cause

Functional medicine promises to look for the root of a problem rather than just its symptoms, an approach that draws both fervent loyalty and pointed criticism. The writers here describe their own encounters with it, with the nuance the debate usually lacks.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts trace the functional medicine experience: what brought people to it, the extensive testing and protocols, the dietary and lifestyle overhauls, the costs involved, and the outcomes — from genuine relief to disappointment. Writers weigh what helped against what it asked of them.

Who it's for

For those considering functional medicine, those already pursuing it, and anyone wanting honest first-hand perspective before committing time and money.
